OPPORTUNITY VILLAGE EUGENE (OVE) – Photos and Videos of the Village

Opportunity Village is absolutely beautiful through and through. The purpose of the village is to help people and it has fulfilled its mission and more. With the combined efforts of the Village Board, Village Government, Volunteers, and Villagers themselves; they have created a Village of vibrantly colored Tiny Houses, each with their own personality.

From the time you enter Opportunity Village, you can see the hard work and love that has gone into OVE. A mural decorates the community shower house, bathrooms, and laundry facility. Gardens are dispersed throughout the Village with edibles and flowers everywhere in summertime. Many people have already been helped to transition into better circumstances, but when they leave they often say “they’ll miss it”. It has been a lot of hard work but Opportunity Village Eugene has accomplished it’s mission to create a healthy and beautiful space that improves the lives of the unhoused and gives people a chance to get back onto their feet.
